Abstract: In this work, a burst eddy current testing technique based on the employment of a diamond nitrogen vacancy (NV) center magnetometer with the Hahn echo (HE) sequence is demonstrated. With the confocal experiment apparatus, the HE-based NV magnetometer attained a magnetic sensitivity of $4.3 ~ \mathrm{nT} / \sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}$ and a volume-normalized sensitivity of $3.6 ~ \mathrm{pT} / \sqrt{\mathrm{Hz} \cdot \mathrm{mm}^{-3}}$, which are 5 times better than the already existing method under the same conditions. Based on the proposed magnetometer configuration, a burst eddy current (BEC) testing prototype achieves a minimum detectable sample smaller than ${300~{\mu} \mathrm{m}}$ and measurement accuracy of $9.85~\mathrm{\mu} \mathrm{m}$., which is employed to image different metallic specimens and detect the layered internal structures. Since our prototype comprises superb high sensitivity, it exhibits various potential applications in the fields of deformation monitoring, security screening, and quality control. Moreover, its biocompatibility and promising nanoscale resolution paves the way for electromagnetic testing in the fields of biomaterials.

Wide-field microwave magnetic field imaging with nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond [0.0]
Non-invasive imaging of microwave (MW) magnetic fields with microscale lateral resolution is pivotal for various applications. NV center magnetometry has emerged as an ideal tool, offering $mu$m-scale resolution, millimeter-scale field of view, high sensitivity, and non-invasive imaging compatible with diverse samples. This work demonstrates a novel NV magnetometry protocol, based on differential Rabi frequency measurement, that extends NV wide-field imaging capabilities to imaging of weak MW magnetic fields.

Recently, wide-field NV magnetic imaging based on the Ramsey protocol has achieved uniform and enhanced sensitivity compared to conventional measurements. We integrate the Ramsey-based protocol with spin-bath driving to extend the NV spin dephasing time and improve magnetic sensitivity.

A Solid-State Microwave Magnetometer with Picotesla-Level Sensitivity [6.651249440652801]
Quantum sensing of low-frequency magnetic fields using nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center ensembles has been demonstrated in multiple experiments with sensitivities as low as $sim$1 pT/$sqrttextHz$. Here we adapt for microwave frequencies techniques that have enabled high-performance, low-frequency quantum sensors. We demonstrate a Rabi-sequence-based magnetometer able to detect microwave fields near 2.87 GHz with a record sensitivity of 3.4 pT/$sqrttextrmHz$.

We investigate the use of a split-ring resonator incorporated with an atomic-vapor cell to improve sensitivity and the minimal detectable electric field of Rydberg atom-based sensors. By combining EIT with a heterodyne Rydberg atom-based mixer approach, the SRR allows for the a sensitivity of 5.5$mu$V/m$sqrtrm Hz$, which is two-orders of magnitude improvement in sensitivity than when the SRR is not used.

Solid state defects in diamond make promising quantum sensors with high sensitivity andtemporal resolution. Inhomogeneous broadening and drive amplitude variations have differing impacts on the sensitivity depending on the sensing scheme used. We numerically investigate and compare the predicted sensitivity of schemes based on continuous-wave (CW) optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) spectroscopy, pi-pulse ODMR and Ramsey interferometry.

Simultaneous boundary shape estimation and velocity field de-noising in Magnetic Resonance Velocimetry using Physics-informed Neural Networks [70.7321040534471]
Magnetic resonance velocimetry (MRV) is a non-invasive technique widely used in medicine and engineering to measure the velocity field of a fluid. Previous studies have required the shape of the boundary (for example, a blood vessel) to be known a priori. We present a physics-informed neural network that instead uses the noisy MRV data alone to infer the most likely boundary shape and de-noised velocity field.
